SHC Patient, May 2017
The doctor's assistant spent a fair amount of time with me. The main doctor spent about 7 minutes with me. I don't think that is sufficient time.
SHC Patient, May 2017
Dr. Kushida is great. Calm, relaxed, to the point. Took the time to research my problem and resolved my issue.
SHC Patient, Apr 2017
physician was stone cold. No empathy. Barely wanted to talk to me. poorly explained options. I brought in lots of prior records Spent most of time reviewing those, and inputting his notes. Should have been asked to forward records prior to appointment and use appt. time to communicate with patient.
SHC Patient, Dec 2016
Dr. Kushida was very kind. But it was Dr. Christopher Nguyen that was mostly dealt with and he was VERY understanding of our situation; what could & could not be accomplished with our son (disabled); and prescribed the only course of action that was reasonable. Very good doctor.

Left confused. Like I was a statistic in and out.
